I will love and care about your pets almost* as much as you would, while you are away, and even when you are not.
*"Almost" because no one can love them quite the way you do.

Good spring afternoon !
As of 4/1/24, Critter Sitters of Bay City was officially in business for 27 years. --Unreal-- 🐰🐶🐱🐭🐹🐸🐔🦆🐴🐢🐠🦜🎹
(these are most of the critters I have cared for over the years--including a grand piano).

It has been an adventure, a learning and growing time. But most of all, it has been my pleasure to meet and care for so very many of the wonderful animals around and about Bay City & Essexville, MI. There was a time I traveled Munger, Linwood, Wisner, Freeland, Reese & Auburn. My travels have shortened over the past few years, and now the bridges of Bay City have become a challenge (will get worse, before it gets better) which has kept me even closer to my home base.
And then there was Covid. . . It changed a lot lives, for a lot of people. And for me, had a significant impact on my business.

However, I am still here . . . at least until 12/23/24.
This I have chosen for my "soft" retirement date.

I plan to continue caring for pets, here and there. But my schedule will be much lighter beginning in 2025.

As I am completing my taxes and sending them on, I thought it was a good time to make an announcement . . .

Thanks for the memories. 🥰

It is Martin Luther King Jr. Day in the United States today. Did you know King included animals in his hopes for the future?

Our Story

April 1, 1997 - April 1, 2019

Wow, 22 years ago today, Critter Sitters of Bay City opened! A new chapter, a career in Professional Pet Sitting. A profession that wasn’t often recognized, nor preformed back in 1997, other than by family members, or neighbors.

After working in the banking industry for about 18 years; three of them at a bank in Caro, a 35 minute drive, making it impossible to come home and care for my own dog, Haley, on my lunch hour, so she was left with family each day. Then I adopted a second dog, a Dalmatian I named PJ, and now with two dogs, I was unable to drop both of them on family, but needed someone to come to my home. A bit of an inconvenience for family, or friends, on an on-going basis.

After leaving the bank in Caro, I started researching different home based businesses and came across a book written by a Professional Pet Sitter! Really? I could work from home, kind of, and be part of, what became, an up and coming industry--working with animals?! Really?! I knew I couldn’t be the only one who had their furry family members waiting at home each day, sometimes waiting 10 hours between potty breaks, and human contact. So between my own known and personal need, combined with my lifelong love of animals, it was a no brainer what my next occupation would be! Wa-la! Critter Sitters of Bay City was born, and as they say, the rest is history--22 years worth!
